Introduction 


The present volume is a revision of Architectural Terra Cotta—Standard Construction, 
originally published in 1914. 


Like the previous issue, this edition does not presume to suggest architectural design. It 
shows illustrative architectural forms of assumed proportions, and their proper constructional 


features. 


It shows the correct use of Terra Cotta. 
solutions of the structural problems are possible. 


For a number of examples several good 
Variations in size of similar sections sometimes 


necessitate radical changes in both jointing and construction. 


The changes made in this revision are the result of a more extended experience in manufac- 
turing and in modern building methods, and are based on a careful study of the behavior and 
weathering properties of exterior building materials. 


The following are the most important of the structural principles upon which this revision 
has been developed: 


Shelf 
Supports 


Expansion 
Joints 


Terra Cotta 
on Concrete 
Frames 


Protection 
against 
Corrosion 


Free- 
standing 
Construction 


Flashing 
and Drips 


NATIONAL TERRA COTTA SOCIETY :V:S-A -INTRODVCTION 


In concrete or steel frame buildings, the veneer or facing material should be fully and continuously 
supported, at each floor level on shelf supports, of adequate strength and stiffness, rigidly connected 
to the structural frame. Steel shelf angles or supports, in all cases, should be located in mortar 
joints. The strength of the Terra Cotta should not be unnecessarily reduced by cutting the webs 
to receive the steel. 


Proper provision should be made for expansion joints, at shelf supports, over column caps, etc., to 
prevent the development of disruptive stresses caused by deflection, wind pressure, temperature 
changes, settlement and like forces. 


The volume changes incident to the setting and hardening of concrete, and the variations in volume 
of concrete due to humidity and temperature conditions, require provisions to allow free movement 
of the supporting frame and make it undesirable to completely fill a facing applied to a concrete 
structure. 


Proper care should be exercised to prevent the corrosion of all steel supports, ties, etc. Where 
such protection cannot be permanently secured through encasement with mortar or concrete, or 
through the use of corrosion resistant metallic coatings, non-corrosive metals should be employed. 


Exposed free-standing construction, subject to the absorption of water through mortar joints and 
liable to injury from subsequent freezing, or the expansion of improper filling material, should gen- 
erally be left unfilled and should be ventilated by means of small, inconspicuously placed weep-holes 
(indicated by W. H. on the plates). 


Properly constructed flashing should be provided to cover the top of large projecting horizontal 
courses, the backs and tops of parapet walls, wide-exposed sill courses, etc., and all projecting fea- 
tures should have drips.

Terra Cotta 


A brief synopsis of the manufacture of Terra Cotta 


Drawings The architect’s complete scale drawings and steel framing plans are furnished the manufacturer, 
who, following the design, makes scale shop drawings showing the jointing and construction, and 
full size details to the proper shrinkage dimensions. These drawings are submitted to the architect 
for approval before proceeding with the work. 

Models Full size models to shrinkage scale are made of plaster for each different shape shown on the shop 

and Moulds drawings. Over these models sectional moulds of plaster are cast, from which later the required 
number of pieces of Terra Cotta are produced. 

Decoration From the architect’s drawings or sketches, in the style and period indicated, modelled ornament is 
applied in clay to the face of the plaster models. Photographs of the ornamental models are sub- 
mitted to the architect for approval or he may personally examine these models at the factory— 
the soft clay permits of such corrections or improvements which may be desired. 

Clay The mixture of clays and fusible minerals used in forming the Terra Cotta is carefully selected and 
proportioned to give the desired degree of plasticity and a composition which, when fired at high 
ee will produce a homogeneous body, amply strong to carry the required structural 
loads. 

Pressing ‘The foregoing processes are preparatory to actual production, the first step of which is pressing. 
This is a manual operation and consists of pressing the plastic clay into the mould. The walls of 
the pieces should not be less than one inch thick, following the contour of the mould, and the 
partitions should be of such thickness and so spaced as to perform their proper functions with regard 
to form and structure. The pressed piece remains in the mould until the clay stiffens. It is then 
removed from the mould and is skillfully retouched. Then it is placed in driers, where the moisture 
is evaporated. 

From the drying process, the Terra Cotta passes into the spraying department where, by means of 
compressed air apparatus, the exposed surfaces are coated with the ceramic mixture which, during 
the firing process following, develops into the desired color or glaze. 

These colors or glazes are prepared with scrupulous care, according to exact ceramic formulae. 
The variety of shades and textures which may be obtained opens up an unlimited field of permanent 

-. color design in architecture. 

Firing Following the coloring process, the Terra Cotta is fired in kilns where it is subjected to a temperature 
rising gradually to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit or more, depending upon the temperature of maturity 
of the clay and glaze. After proper firing, the kiln is allowed to cool slowly to normal temperature, 
an operation that causes a slow annealing of the Terra Cotta. 

Terra Cotta is usually fired in periodic muffle kilns. In recent years, the tunnel kiln has been 
developed for the firing of Terra Cotta. In the latter type of kiln the Terra Cotta is set or 
loaded on cars, which travel through a long heated tunnel. 

Filling From the kiln, the Terra Cotta is removed to the fitting department, where it is laid out and marked 
to correspond with the piece numbers shown on the shop drawings. It is also marked to indicate 
the position it is to occupy in the building. Where required, the joints are squared, or cut to 
proper alignment and size, either by hand or grinding. Careful fitting is essential to assure satis- 
factory results in the erected Terra Cotta. 

Shipping — For rail transportation, Terra Cotta is usually shipped in bulk, securely packed in hay and braced 
to prevent shifting. ; 

Upon arrival at the building site, the hay should be removed and the Terra Cotta placed in the 
order marked, in piles on wooden strips. ; ‘ 

For export by vessel, the Terra Cotta is usually packed in boxes or crates, according to the special 
conditions encountered. Another method that has been found to be economical and entirely satis- 
factory is to ship the Terra Cotta loose after it has been wrapped and tied in corrugated cardboard. 

Erection The appearance of erected Terra Cotta is greatly affected by inaccurate setting and defective point- 
ing of the mortar joints. As the individual pieces of Terra Cotta have been carefully fitted and 
numbered to correspond with the erection drawings, the PIECES MUST BE ERECTED IN 
ACCORD WITH THE NUMBERS THEREON if satisfactory results are to be secured. 

Time The Terra Cotta manufacturer will contract to submit shop drawings for approval within a fixed 
time after receipt of the architect’s drawings and other required information. All shipping dates 
are computed from the date of receipt by the manufacturer of architect’s approval of shop drawings 
and complete data on color and texture desired. Work cannot be definitely scheduled for production 
until all essential information is on hand. The process of manufacture may take from six to ten 
weeks, depending upon the size and architectural character of the order. 

Specifica- A Standard Specification for the Manufacture, Furnishing and Setting of Terra Cotta and a standard 
lion and {orm of contract have been adopted by the NATIONAL TERRA COTTA SOCIETY. | They are 
Contract recommended for general use. A copy of either may be secured by addressing the Society. The 

; specifications are incorporated in this volume. 


Central and Western sections of the United States (see list 


Terra Cotta factories are conveniently located in the Eastern, designer interested in. the 


in back of this volume). All of the Society’s membership will be glad to have any architect or 
processes of manufacture of Terra Cotta visit their plants.

Standard Specification 
for the 
Manufacture, Furnishing and Setting of Terra Cotta 


Adopted by NATIONAL TERRA COTTA SOCIETY 


a Pees aoe Architect or Specification Writer will find it convenient to follow the Short Form Specification beginning with 
ection 63. 

The Short Form incorporates all the provisions of the Standard Terra Cotta Specification, but eliminates the necessity of mentioning 
them in detail. 

Reference to the Glossary, Sections 50-62, will supply the surface finish, ceramic finish, and color data necessary to specify surface 
and color correctly. 

The Corollary Clauses, Sections 85, 86, explain the setting option between mason and manufacturer. 

Sections 87-91 under Corollary Clauses explain the specifications for flashing, sheet metal, structural steel, structural concrete and 
rough carpentry. These specifications form a part of the Terra Cotta Specifications, although the materials are supplied and set in 


place by different contracting parties. A 


A—GENERAL INFORMATION 


Drawings : The Terra Cotta manufacturer shall be furnished with all drawings, details and other in- 
and formation necessary for the manufacture of Terra Cotta, including drawings for all classes of 
Schedules work with which the Terra Cotta engages. 


Wherever Terra Cotta is required to match in contour, color, finish and surface treatment, 
existing Terra Cotta, as for example in connection with alterations or additions to existing 
work, the Terra Cotta manufacturer shall be furnished with the required profiles and samples 
of the original work, and other needed information. 


The Terra Cotta manufacturer shall, before proceeding with manufacture, submit to the 
architect for his correction and approval, shop drawings showing jointing and construction of 
the Terra Cotta and provision made for all flashing and counter flashing. These drawings 
must conform as nearly as practicable to the architect’s drawings, but shall be in accordance 
with good Terra Cotta structural practice. 


All pieces of Terra Cotta shall be numbered. The Terra Cotta manufacturer shall provide 
two copies of the completed scale shop drawings to be used for setting and showing the piece 
numbering of the Terra Cotta, and the size of the joints to be used for setting the various 
portions of the work clearly indicated. These drawings shall be designated as the setting 
drawings. 


The Terra Cotta manufacturer shall furnish, as promptly as possible, a schedule of all 
special anchors, hangers, etc., necessary to secure and support the Terra Cotta in a manner 
approved by the architect. 


B—MATERIAL 


Note:—In view of the researches now being conducted by the National Bureau of Standards 
at the instance of the National Terra Cotta Society, it seems inadvisable to attempt, at this 
time, to write either quality clauses in terms of crushing strengths, densities and elasticity, 
or specifications for tests. Clauses descriptive of the desirable physical characteristics and of 
tests to prove compliance of the material with such physical requirements will be prepared 
as soon as the necessary data are available and inserted in a later edition of this standard 


specification. 
Modeling i All ornament shall be artistically modeled by the Terra Cotta manufacturer’s staff 


artists. (Or, models made to Terra Cotta shrinkage scale will be furnished to Terra Cotta 
manufacturer, without cost to him, securely crated for shipment f. 0. b. modelers’ studio at ve 


Photographs in duplicate of all ornament shall be submitted to the architect for his approval 
or correction, or, if he so desires, he may inspect all modeling at the factory. Such approval 
or inspection by the architect shall be made promptly. No ornamental work shall be burned 
until modeling has been approved. 

Surface Finish, : The surface finish, ceramic finish and color of all exposed surfaces of Terra Cotta shall be 
Ceramic Finish as indicated by the architect’s drawings or as specified. For surface and ceramic treatments, 
and Color see Glossary of Terms relating to Terra Cotta, which is hereby made a part of this specification. 

The ceramic finish shall be applied to the Terra Cotta in such a manner as thoroughly to 
coat the exposed surfaces. 

Samples ; The Terra Cotta manufacturer shall submit samples of the color or colors of the ceramic 
finish to the architect for his approval, and all Terra Cotta shall conform without marked 
variation to the sample or samples so approved.

If any pieces of Terra Cotta are damaged in transit, the manufacturer shall be immediately 
notified in writing by the setting contractor and proceed with the remaking of the pieces. The 
responsibility for the cost of such replacements shall be determined by the point of delivery 
fixed by the contract under which the Terra Cotta is delivered. If the point of delivery is 
beyond the immediate control of the manufacturer, the setting contractor shall assume responsi- 
bility for the necessary proof of damage. 


E—ERECTION 


The setting contractor shall receive the Terra Cotta on arrival at the freight yards and shall 
transfer it without damage from the cars to the building. When the Terra Cotta manufacturer 
delivers on trucks at the building the setting contractor shall unload and store the Terra Cotta.
